Using 2.6 (April 15th, 2009).

I have a date field that is an int in the db (sample data 20091005). I would like to only expose the field as a DateTime.

So, is TypeConverter the right way to do this?

Or is there a way to hide the generated member so that I can add my own property to the partial class that does the conversion?

Thanks

I did it with a TypeConverter. Works great.

I think if it's working fine, then you should carry on...

Type Converters are the way to go. If you choose not to generate the field it will not be available in the entity for your partial class method to work on.
